My name is Wilma Menchaca Sanchez. I am 16 years old and I am in the eighth grade at the boarding school in Nucleo 38. 38 is a village in the San Julian district of Santa Cruz, where most of the people are Quechua-speaking migrants from the colder, arid highland regions of western Bolivia.
“I like to be in school, even if I have classes in tents”
